HBO’s Bill Maher kicked off Real Times’s 2026 run on Friday by claiming that Renee Good’s shooting “was an execution on the street” and lamented to Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy that President Trump won’t use his “cult leader” status to push “comprehensive immigration reform” now that he has proved “he’s the tough guy.” For his part, Kennedy was able to clear up that if you want to reform…
HBO’s Bill Maher’s habit of reducing a chaotic scene to one photograph continued on Friday’s episode of Real Time, where he compared a photograph of the Alex Pretti shooting to The Last Jew in Vinnitsa photograph during the Holocaust. Joining Maher at the table was MS NOW host Joe Scarborough, who, in other Minneapolis news, declared former CNN host Don Lemon’s arrest was meant “to scare other…
CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed Sen. Bernie Sanders to The Late Show for the nineteenth and hopefully final time on Tuesday for an obnoxiously long, four-segment softball interview covering everything from Colbert’s employer to Venezuela to Minnesota to socialism.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed Sen. Bernie Sanders to The Late Show for the nineteenth and hopefully final time on Tuesday for an obnoxiously long, four-segment softball interview covering everything from Colbert’s employer to Venezuela to Minnesota to socialism.
Early on, Colbert put the ball on the tee, “As long as I've got you here, as long as I've got you here, I think we all understandably…
MS NOW White House correspondent Jake Traylor joined Tuesday’s Ana Cabrera Reports for a textbook example of how aspiring reporters should not do their job. Within the span of only one minute, Traylor would display an obvious hypocrisy on the usefulness of anecdotal stories and fail to fact-check President Trump on Sunday’s St. Paul church storming, because it was Traylor who needed to be fact-…
NBC’s Saturday Night Live returned from its lengthy Christmas break this past weekend and quickly joined the rest of the nightly comedy shows in seeking to smear ICE. According to SNL, ICE agents are bad fathers who have anger issues and just like being violent for its own sake.
During the cold open, Ashley Padilla played the role of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem who rattled off some…
MS NOW’s Ali Velshi’s weekend show is the place to go if you desire to hurl a Nazi analogy at the Trump administration. This Saturday, Godwin’s Law was fulfilled by progressive radio host Thom Hartmann, who compared the administration’s Minneapolis response to Hitler doing away with state autonomy in 1934.
